The Ecogolf, an eco-responsible golf course certified by the Ariégeois Pyrenees Natural Park, is a model for sustainable and ecological management in France. The Ecogolf Ariège-Pyrénées and its courses (3 golf courses + open air walk open to everyone) covers a 75 hectare estate. In the wooded areas, as well as areas used for playing, sustainable maintenance is subject to a unique agreement in France between the Ariégeois Pyrenees Natural Park and the French Golf Federation. Here the gardeners only water the course with rainwater collected in artificial ponds, use as little fertiliser as possible, treat turf disease respecting the ecosystem and transparently looking for the best solutions. The Ecogolf promises to guarantee natural resources, health and golfing conditions on a par with the best courses.
